Is this the moment that Michelle Connor seeks more than solace from her close friend Robert Preston, who has already declared his love for her, as she reels from Steve McDonald’s betrayal in Coronation Street?

In the wake of Michelle’s discovery that Steve is the father of Leanne Tilsley’s baby Olly, her heart is in pieces and one person who is there for her is Robert. Michelle is already aware of Robert’s deep feelings for her and knows also how much it would hurt Steve if she got close to him. Might she be tempted to find passion with Robert in order to get back at Steve? Or might she even find she has genuine feelings for Robert too?

As Robert pops round to see Michelle and offer any help that she needs, she is certainly grateful but it remains to be seen how far things might progress between this potential couple.

Fans have been speculating for a number of weeks that they are bound to get together and there’s no denying that there is definite closeness developing, particularly as Michelle remains raw and seeks to angrily lash out at Steve, whom she demands a divorce from.
